Looking for drivers in their Japanese site or if I'm lucky their Eurpean (but always hidden in some dark corner). You can download the drivers from here: http://support-au.canon.com.au/P/search?model=PIXMA+MX376&menu=download&filter=0&tagname=g_os&g_os=Linux It does some really ugly things (especially if you have a network device - scanning all the subnets you're connected to, IP by IP, finally keeping only the mac-address of the device, then every use scan for the IP again), but eventually it works. You might also need to fix some shared-object dependencies (symlinking some SOs). Anyway - these tools worked for me with the MX470 device with Fedora17 & 18. Hope it'll help. - Noam > > What is the easiest way to install the driver for the 370 series (since it > does seem to exist) so that I would be able to use this from the Ubuntu > machine? > > Thanks, > > -- > David [email protected] > > > _______________________________________________ > Linux-il mailing list > [email protected] > http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il > >
